@yogthos Generative AI companies are tied directly to fascist organizations and government. Their aesthetic is tied strongly to far-right movements. They are not a tool for us; you may as well say Volkswagen and that Nazi Propaganda Gothic German font are our tools.

Nobody is talking about using US based generative AI companies tied to fascist organizations. There are plenty of open source models and companies from China that are readily available. This technology is absolutely a tool for us, and ignoring it simply give advantage to the fascists.

May I ask if you could point to a compiled list of them for the uninitiated and tech illiterate?

There is a project I've discovered recently which is similar to GPT4All, except you can throw multiple GPUs at the workloads (and yes it can use Vulkan): https://github.com/LostRuins/koboldcpp

I haven't messed much with it but it builds and works fine on Linux. The only thing I don't like is that the source tree has a bunch of Windows binaries in it.

Oh nifty, another handy one is Jan, it can even use MCP with the beta version https://jan.ai/

What crack are you on? You can build and run completely local SD models for any need you possibly have. As a matter of fact I do exactly that. Not everyone is using bigCorpAI out there
